Eggless Sugar Cookies image

One day I was in the mood to make cookies, so I grabbed my cookie recipe and started mixing away! It was when I went to the fridge to grab an egg, I discovered I was all out! Ahh, what to do? So, with my love of food science, I experimented and the end result came out perfect-crisp on the outside with a slight chewiness in the middle. You will not believe that there is no egg in this recipe!

Time 45m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 12

¾ cup all-purpose flour
¾ cup bread flour
¾ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon fine sea salt
2 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon cornstarch
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
½ cup white sugar
½ cup light brown sugar
¼ cup plain low-fat yogurt
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Whisk both flours, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl. Mix water and cornstarch together in a small bowl.
  • Combine butter and both sugars in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Mix in cornstarch mixture, then add yogurt and vanilla and beat thoroughly. Add dry ingredients in small batches, beating well after each addition.
  • Drop tablespoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 3 to 4 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely, about 10 more minutes.
